Notes
Grease the pan if not using parchment paper. If using glass baking dish, reduce heat to 325 degrees.
Tip -- Spray the baking pan with non stick spray before adding parchment paper to help the paper fit better in the pan.
If you can't find toffee bits, used crushed Heath Bars or Skor Bars for the topping. Or use crushed peanuts, walnuts or pecans.
